Nailed it! The section where he does slow it down is outright Holdsworthian and what really puts it into perspective is that like you said, it's just him fucking around. No serious thought put into it. He was a true virtuoso taken way too early. RIP.
@@thetheoristtranscriptions Yeah... Like others pointed out this isn't a clip of his best work obviously. I'm not defending this bit as a stand alone piece of music, I'm defending Shawn Lane from the "iT NoT eVeN mUsIiCaL" crowd who inevitably turn up in the comments of EVERY video like this. Have you listened to Powers of Ten? There actually isn't much outright "shred" to be found there and when it is, it's used quite sparingly.

On your other comment, I do agree that a lot of guitarists try to fit into a "box" in terms of their influence. I love the chords that Holdsworth uses and his solo playing is great, but I wouldn't say that he is one of my favorites. I do, honestly and truly, enjoy Shawn Lane's playing though. Not just because of his speed but because of his fusion roots, his tone choice, and what he plays within the speed itself (something a lot of other guitarists completely fail at that are deemed, "shredders"). And he was also, according to a lot of accounts of people who have met him, one of the most humble and nice people they've ever met, as well as one of the most intelligent.

@@LucasTheUltimate Shawn is like a legend that you’d hear about but could never believe until you actually saw it.

He developed a cult following even while he was still alive, and its incredible to hear some of their stories
Only musicians and guitarists can appreciate Shawn Lane....the guitar gods of the world consider Shawn Lane their guitar god. He wasn't just super fast....his speed has soul and his speed sings... He was a true genius. He has been my guitar hero since the early 90's and to this day... whenever I'm down.. I watch his TH-cam to remind me that the impossible is still possible.

@@theherbpuffer Buckethead can't pick 16th notes at 290-300bpm like Shawn. The closest he gets is around 230bpm, and there's many other players who can reach that. And Shawn is no less versatile a player - compare Rice With the Angels to Aga of the Ladies.
@@biscobisco1882 possibly because shawn didn't live long enough so I'm not taking anything away from him. but buckethead way more versatile with a wider range of genre. For example I listened to Disintegration mirrors and then played Sunburst and then The Left Panel. Yeah, no one's touching Buckethead.. I really question if it's the same guitarist sometimes
He's omitted from every best of list. I don't know where he would fall well ahead of Steve vai certainly. He's truly gifted beyond his years. RIP the master of shred Shawn lane.
Shawn Lane is untouchable. There may never be a better guitar player in human history, from both a technicality, performance, and creativity perspective. One of Shawn’s solos has more skill and texture than some people’s entire careers.
Yes!! It's so fast that you can't concentrate on each not individually. It's the big picture of these groups of notes. Like looking at a painting. Don't get too close or focus on small lines too much. Step back and take in the big picture the way it was intended. Or do both!!
That's exactly what I asked Shawn back in 1997! He said the thing about helicopter blades and then turned me on to Art Tatum. In particular the song "Elegy" Shawn said if you listen to that piece there are parts where his left hand is mimicking the reverse of what his right hand is doing at it's fastest point. - CB
I remember 12 years ago i visited the site for the first time.I burst into tears the very moment the site music started.Such a huge loss.I wish you good paradise GREAT SHAWN LANE.
@@claudiomonteda8716 Marcus Paus was a fraud - all he did was pick fast and slide his hand around, he wasn't fretting a note 95% of the time. He barely qualifies as a guitarist.
@@biscobisco1882 You can see it only once in the namm, so I can tell that it only used C major scales the whole time, although it ran so fast that it couldn't mix or transition to other scales, it was quite similar to what Daniel Himebauch does which tend to play in more comfortable positions such as playing on scales that are closer to each other or using one by default and not like the song the flight of the bumblebee that is run throughout the neck. In fact, when trying to copy this style with a pick less than 2.0mm it is quite common to use the elbow as support, so when they reach such speeds they use exactly the same Marchbank pick technique, tip inclined about 30 degrees and 1 pick attack on any string before moving on to another. Here is another video of pause where the left hand is seen more closely. th-cam.com/video/PcJqo_mD4FI/w-d-xo.html
This is one of my favorite Shawn clips. Awesome post thanks! Love when he gets a little stuck and rephrases the line. Nobody comes close and we know it. He was really a gift to show us the way. Get to share my bday with him coming up in March. RIP with angels.
Most of these lines are unbelievable . Could be a two volume book just outlining the concepts, and he’s just messing around. Shawn was very special and had an unbelievable feel and (if focused) could play whichever role was needed for a guitarist.. his ability was so off the charts, I love just seeing him noodle around… especially because it is just so impressive and unbelievably complex , yet he was just having fun and could compose really impactful music. He was like a modern day Chopin.
There's a very fine line between inspiration and discouragement. If you're not sure what side you're on after watching this it's because you've just witnessed genius. RIP SL\m/
Shawn Lane is my favourite guitarist along side Roy Marchbank. As guitarists they have the same insane speeds and left right hand accuracy. Both are superhumanly brilliant and always pushing the known and even unknown boundaries. Mediocrity knows it and pales in what it recognises to be the cleanest most insane technique whilst also being musical. It’s quite simply understated genius and should be revered the world over. RIP Shawn Lane, Long live Roy Marchbank! We are just beginning to appreciate what he has to offer.

The only thing that was close to Shawn back in the day was Eddie Van Halen. People would be just SHOCKED, even when he was 14 and hardly NOBODY was recording his jams. It was the Late 70’s
@@zaccyo sure. I was in Kingsbury High School with him in the late 70’s. He was 1 year older than me and was in high school band. He could play any instrument. He was especially talented on Piano and guitar. He gave out lessons and I arranged a Bass Guitar lesson. He said just bring whatever album and I’ll figure it out. “ Firehouse” by Kiss was the first song he ever taught me. We had him hanging around us because he never got out of the house much ( was always at home playing) We had him interested in Old Beer Cans for Collecting. We would cover half the wall with them. I paid him in old “Collectable Beer Cans “ for the lessons…haha wish I’d have gotten lessons on how to shred on a guitar. Dang, if only I’d known!
He did have a live video of him playing on stage with U Srinivas, hellborg, and the vinayakrams used as the score for an emotional scene in an Italian film. The name escapes me but it was fitting when I watched it. I also have an unreleased “film score” type song from him that feels a lot like the symphonies in powers of ten . I have it unlisted on TH-cam but if you message me on here I can send it to you , I don’t check often so sorry if there is a delay.
Damn that's a beautiful guitar! What the hell is about this Strats that make them so beautiful? Is a mass produced modular guitar with no binding or fancy inlays. But they are so beautiful in any shape they are in. New beat up doesn't mater.
Shawn was operating on a different level of consciousness billions of light years ahead of the mediocrity we got left here so y’all just drop on your knees and behold
Can't tell if he keeps alternating to some Jimi or some Stevie Licks but sounds more like he's imitating some Stevie haha and with just madness in between
Think it was Joe Walsh who saw him play in Memphis one bite and said - the kids fucking unbelievable - but why is he in such a G Damn hurry ? Lol. RIP Shawn.
